The Elu Children Care (ECC) philosophy and living style is based on “self-touch” with partnership approach. It is the philosophy that works to rescue the poor foundation of human growth that challenges our system of education in Tanzania.
Many nursery and primary schools and even secondary schools in Tanzania are much informed with one direction of communication. Information and knowledge always come from top to bottom, from teachers to students, from parents to children, from leaders to local people, and not the other way round.
The system of education encourages the children and young people from early elementary to high levels and colleges to receive knowledge and instructions from the top (teachers), and do not contribute enough. This situation, in turn, creates dependency of someone to educate others in the community, that many people live on waiting for support from others.
In contrast, ECC's philosophy considers and sees children and youths as partners. The approach ECC uses is based on friendships that makes our communication a two-way street. The philosophy does not insist more or less on imposing external knowledge, rather it puts much emphasis on learning and discovery.
The philosophy believes that children as human being are not just trainees in life, they are trainers too. Their interactions with other groups of people are not a preparation for life, but they are life itself.
